Tasting notes:
Initially showing delicate aromas of citrus blossom and wet stone, this Sauvignon Blanc reveals subtle complexity of spice from a light touch of new oak. The weighty and lush palate of ripe citrus pith is focused by crisp acidity and fine oak tannins from time in barrel, resulting in a beautifully textured and elegant wine with endless minerality.
Review:
From all hand-picked fruit, and matured for a short period in used oak, and produced in tiny quantity, this is Marisco's flagship. A wonderful opportunity to taste mature Sauvignon Blanc with evolved notes of smoky lime zest, wax and a most fluid, rich texture. There is rich fruit, almost like oily orange but the freshness is still pristine. A wonderful and new experience of Sauvignon Blanc with a long echo of mandarin.
